Founded by English gardener John Tebbs, The Garden Edit redraws the traditional boundaries associated with shopping and the garden by bringing together a modern collection of products that embody functionality, timelessness and beauty.

The Zurich Succulent Plant Collection is one of the most impressive of its kind, covering more than 4750sqm and displaying over 6500 plants. We visited the collection and brought our good old 35mm camera.

Whether you're a gardener, a vegetarian, or you just love playing cards, this deck of cards featuring vegetables instead of the usual boring hearts, diamonds, spades and clubs we're used to, is fabulous and quirky.

Whether you're a gardener, a vegetarian, or you just love playing cards, this deck of cards featuring vegetables instead of the usual boring hearts, diamonds, spades and clubs we're used to, is fabulous and quirky.

The concept has been created by Eight Communications, a team of veg enthusiasts who run a design shop in Manhattan. This set of cards will only go into production if they receive pledges to a total of more than $6000 by the 22nd June. They're over halfway there but there's a way to go, so if you'd like to receive a unique pack of these cards, perhaps for yourself or to give away as a unique gift, you'll need to visit the website http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/619318741/e8-garden-deck-bicycle-playing-cards and make your pledge. The sooner you do it, the smaller the amount of cash you'll need to pledge to get your pack of cards. The current pledge level is $11.
